Warning: If modern church culture makes perfect sense to you, and you always fit in seamlessly, don't read this. As for the rest of us...

What does it mean to be a real man? Our culture seems confused about that question and why it even matters. But God has made you for a type of manhood that will not only fulfill you but also benefit everyone around you--if you choose to pursue it. It's not about being athletic or driving a big truck or getting rich (or getting girls). It's much bigger and better than that.Funny, honest, and packed with wisdom, The (Young) Men We Need gives you a clear vision of what it means to be a man by showing why it's crucial that you- forsake the fake and relish the real- protect the vulnerable- be ambitious about the right things- make women and children feel safe, not threatened- choose today who you will become tomorrow- take responsibility for your own spiritual lifeThe world is waiting for you to show up and step into God's purpose for you as a man. This book shows you how to get there.

This book is about one idea: joy. A deep sense of well-being, regardless of circumstances, is not only possible but is promised to all who follow Jesus. Life is hard, but God is good. And through Him we can start to see the world in a more childlike, humble, and optimistic way.

BEING UNOFFENDABLE IS A CHOICEIt's a provocative idea: We are not entitled to get offended or stay angry at other people. The idea of our own ';righteous anger' is a myth. Instead, the Bible calls every follower of Christ to do something radical and countercultural: Let go of our anger and forgive.As it turns out, giving up our right to be offended is one of the most freeing, healthy, relaxing, refreshing, stress-relieving, and encouraging things we can do. It allows us to recognize that people are broken and stop being scandalized by their actions. It enables us to accept people and stop judging them. It creates a way for us to not just love others but to actually like them.In this six-session Bible study, based on the bestselling book of the same name, Brant Hansen shares practical ways to live life with less stress and more care by becoming unoffendable. In his highly entertaining style, he seeks to lift the religious burdens from our backs and allow us to experience the joy of gratitude every day of our livesflourishing the way God intended.This study guide includes:Individual access to six streaming video sessionsA ';how to use this guide' sectionVideo notes and a comprehensive structure for group discussion timePersonal study for deeper reflection between sessionsSessions and video run times:The Myth of Righteous Anger (18:00)What Humans Are Like (18:00)The Physiological Effects of Anger (18:00)What About Injustice?
